Alistair Coote

I mean, pass really bottling it, especially with Sean McRover's losing points.

You have Ali Coote's red card.

Very, very fair.

It's a pretty, pretty hard challenge.

Before we get stuck into it all with the lads, here's what happened on Off the Ball last Friday night.

St. Pat's manager Stephen Kenny very frustrated that it has been 27 days since their last game in the league.

That was a 1-0 victory over Sligar Rovers.

It certainly got the attention after the victory for Shamrock Rovers on Monday night that almost felt like they had one hand on the trophy.

That's what we're trying to implement.

We go another tough Dublin derby next week away to Bohemians, but we'll recover and we'll move in and look forward to that game.

Yes, that is John Russell, the manager of Shelburne.

They're speaking to Jonathan Higgins after Shelburne's big win last Friday night at Inchicore.

it was there like all the stars were aligning

yeah and and we just totally put a put a pin in that balloon and um i don't know if you saw your man on on instagram coming out of the ground he's like anyone but shells it's just magic i love all the meltdown started well well before the final whistle and well before ali coote's Got that sentence ending off.

Yeah, can I ask? I'll ask you about that in a sec, Cully.

But can I just say, Adam Carey wrote in to say, nothing beats a win against them.

yeah they'll turn around though and say look what do you have at the end of the season for yourselves we're fourth place no trophies this year but Look, there's a bit of pleasure to be taken from this, Nev, definitely.

Yeah, yeah, just considering some of the players.

But someone who didn't give us any pleasure on Friday that you kind of alluded to, I have to read this out because Ali Coote clearly has plans for the midterm and doesn't want to be playing football after that tackle.

So Bob McCarthy said, oh, I forgot what the hell was Ali Coote thinking.

We've option on the bench.

You see tonight, John Martin coming in, Sean Boyd, Ali Coote, um, JJ Lunny.

Like, these are top players.

Um, so when you have that strength and depth, you've got a real chance.
